Frequently Asked Questions about SERVOSTAR-670
Q: What are the input voltage specifications and control accuracy of the SERVOSTAR 670?
A: The amplifier accepts a differential input voltage of ~10V relative to ground at terminal X3/7, with an input resistance of 2.4 k1/2. It operates with a common mode voltage level of ~10V and features an update rate of 62.5 us, ensuring accurate and responsive control.
Q: How does the SERVOSTAR 670 manage thermal protection?
A: The amplifier uses PTC (Positive Temperature Coefficient) devices embedded in the motor windings for thermal protection. These devices prevent the amplifier and motor from exceeding safe operating temperatures by implementing a thermal cut-off.
Q: What role does the setpoint ramps feature play in motor operation?
A: The setpoint ramps feature limits the acceleration and deceleration rates, ensuring smooth transitions and avoiding instability in the motor's operation.
Q: How does the SERVOSTAR 670 handle cooling without an internal fan?
A: The amplifier uses passive conduction cooling, relying on circulating air without an internal fan. This keeps the internal temperature below 55C and the heat sink temperature below 60C.
Q: What is the purpose of the SSI-interface in the SERVOSTAR 670?
A: The SSI-interface provides serially cyclically absolute position outputs, making it ideal for applications requiring precision in motion control and positioning.
